RELIGIOUS WARS Between 1562 and 1598 France was
rocked with 8 religious wars.At this same time, Spain is powerful under
Philip II and England powerful under Elizabeth I.
The wars were between the Catholics and French Huguenots.Huguenots are Calvinist Protestants.
Most notable war was the St. Bartholomew’s Day massacre of 1572
THE BOURBON DYNASTY France had been under the rule of the Valois
dynasty Henry II was the last notable Valois. His wife was Catherine de Medici. Upon the death of Henry II in 1559, all three of their
sons ruled, but Catherine was the regent in control. Upon the death of Henry III and his mother Catherine
de Medici, Henry of Navarre was the heir apparent to the throne. He also had married Henry and Catherine’s daughter, Margaret.
Henry of Navarre was a Huguenot, but changed his religion to Catholicism before his becoming king.
Henry of Navarre would become Henry IV, first Bourbon king of France.
HEALING RELIGIOUS WOUNDS
To end the religious wars Henry issued the Edicts of Nantes in 1598.
Edict of Nantes A declaration of religious tolerance in
France. Promised Protestants could live in
peace in France. Allowed Protestants to set up houses
of worship in some French cities. In 1610, Henry IV was assassinated.
Many believe it was over his religious compromise.
LOUIS XIII Henry IV’s son, but not
like his father. Louis XIII was weak.
He appointed a strong minister to make decisions in his name.
Cardinal Richelieu, in effect, became the ruler of France
MEET CARDINAL RICHELIEU
RICHELIEU'S DECISIONS Steps to increase the power of the
Bourbon Monarchy1. He moved against the Huguenots and
forbade Protestant cities to have walls. That way Protestants had a hard time defending
their cities.2. He weakened the power of the French
nobles. Nobles had to take down fortified castles. Government agents were appointed from the
middle class, not noble class.3. Richelieu involved France in the Thirty
Years War to limit Hapsburg Power.
LOUIS XIV (1638-1715) Son of Louis XIII and Anne Became king at the age of 4 when
his father, died. Cardinal Jules Mazarin became
regent of France until Louis was of age to rule.Mazarin’s Decisions as Regent
Mazarin ended France’s participation in the Thirty Years War in 1648
Increased taxes on Nobles Strengthened the Central government
